How to count the instances if you use the dots to disable some parts of the pattern?

[@CADPLMGuy]

Good question. As far as I know, there is no parameter for the number of disabled instances, at least not any exposed to the user.

For Creo Elements - what is different between instance data and content data?

[@CADPLMGuy]

I don't know.

Hi, i often use criteria on component interfaces, and those are looking at the name of the coordinate system. Is it possible to create a pattern of coosys, and generate an automatic name? per aps instead cs0,cs2,... frontplate1, frontplate2,...

[@CADPLMGuy]

Not that I'm aware of. I tried to do that for coordinate systems for entry ports in connectors.

[@CampariTe]

@@CADPLMGuy thank you for the answer, i probably need to that manually...

I want to place bush on cylinder Inner diameter...which constraints I use for accurate placing...!!!!

[@CADPLMGuy]

It sounds like you want to use the Coincident constraint and select the cylindrical surfaces. Check out this video: ruclips.net/video/bYKbYLfpk6k/видео.html
